Is anyone watching St. Murray of Seismic and his video? (MSNBC)
Why is this guy held out as the authority on what's happening and what caused it?

He's airing some video of the mine rescue operations .... starring him, of course, in the Josh Bernstein role.

GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK

There was NO seismic or (new word for him) 'tectonic' activity. Yet he uses those words endlessly.

He also pointed out how time consuming and **costly** *his* efforts are.

1. These videos sereve only HIM
They document what HE did to save these guys. What HE spent to make it happen. How concerned HE is.

The fact that its all a lie is immaterial. Then he has the audacity to say the video is just for the sake of the families. I will be my left testicle that this video shows next at the trial where is beady-eyed, fat cat ass gets sued.

2. How perfect that he's dressed in his little Dickies work outfit
Gotta play the role of a working coal miner boss.

He's quite the fat, stubby little actor.

4. "seismic activity," "seismic activity," "seismic activity"
"It's very difficult when you're working with nature," he just said...

A bag o' gas
Covering his ass.
Insurance companies: give him NO pass....

5. I'm just waiting for Dem Now's transcript. This guy has been trouble
in the mining industry for years if not decades. Why they're legitimizing him is questionable at best. I think he's trying to save his own ass, nevermind anyone else's.

6. Help me out
What was the name of the movie made in the 1940's about a trapped miner. It turned into a circus starting with the media, then the tourists that came, and then the food vendors. It had a horrible ending I think with the man dying when they could have saved him. It was quite some time ago I saw it but it has stuck in my mind all these years...

8. Kind of funny
watching Murray sweat bullets while he puts on his dog and pony, ass covering show. Kind of like Scrooge having nightmares over being sued. I hope the best for those miners.

12. As someone who has grown up with...
a lot of "seismic activity", when I heard the one worker who got out said there had been no warning before the collapse, I knew ol' Murray was trying desperately to hide an industrial accident.

Every quake I've been in (40+ years worth) has always had a "warm up" period of shaking of at least a few seconds, just enough time to recognize you are having a quake and to at least start moving towards safety.

Earthquake my ASS!

14. I think the USGS has already said there was no earthquake.
Murray the Coal Guy just keeps hanging onto the hope that somehow his criminal ass will benefit from just enough doubt to keep him rich.
